A PINK GIFT

Ladies, I don't know about you, but I got something this Christmas that I was a little giddy about. It was a gift from my husband that was totally unexpected. Totally thoughtful. And totally meaningful.

I have to be honest and say I am not very good with household projects. I can paint. I like to paint. I like to do crafts and make things. But I'm never precise. I don't measure things with a ruler. I just eyeball it. If it looks good, centered, even; then it's good enough for me.

That scares some of you, I know. It REALLY SCARES MY HUSBAND. That's why this gift was so meaningful and surprising.

He is really the most humble person I know. That's one of the traits that drew me to him when I met him. I think that has a lot to do with why he gave me this gift. He isn't too proud to let others know that I do "little projects" around the house. Painting the walls, changing the furniture around (many, many times!) and re-arranging things.

I'm the kinda girl who would see a vanity re-do on HGTV, and attempt it myself. In a hurry, that is, before my sweet husband would get home to tell me

it's not a wise idea. I need the proper tools.

I'm the impulsive one. He's the more thoughtful, analytical one. It kinda works well that way.

It's all fun though, and keeps things interesting! LOL

Do you see what his special gift was to me? I thought it was so thoughtful that he chose pink!! He didn't have to do that! But it so makes it so much more glam and hip, don't you think?

My very own pink tool kit!!!
I wonder if he was just getting tired of me borrowing from his tool box? hee hee
NAHHHHHHHHHH!!!
